Sorting of Series/Films that start with a number

Hi all, this is my first post so please be gentle…

I’ve got a few media items on Plex that start with a number. Is there a way of altering Plex’s sort order, so rather than numbers then letters, Plex will sort by letters then numbers?

Each item has a ‘Sort Title’ which you can edit. When you sort a library by ‘Title’ it will actually be sorted by these Sort Titles.

And the naming convention for Plex can be found here: https://support.plex.tv/articles/categories/media-preparation/

I’ve found using an application like Filebot can resolve some of these issues as well. I use the following preset expression:

<path to tv shows>/{n}/{'Season '+s}/{n} - {s00e00} - {t}
